there have been many games that frustrated the fuck out of me but either (1.) I took a break from the game for a day or so and went back with an fresh outlook and beat the level or (2.) i just kept playing screaming,cursing,bending and twisting controllers in my hands from sheer hatred for that current level or spot in the game. but i got through it eventually with raised blood pressure.....
but only one game made me actually unplug my controller,wrap the cord around my hand,go outside on my front walkway and smash the controller onto the concrete so hard that the metal round thing that activates the "rumble" in said controller shot up and OVER my house into the backyard!!:eek:
that game would be for the old N64 ...wrestlemania... i was doing the story mode and the next level "option" was to WIN the MATCH (no choice to lose) to get a title shot at wrestlemania and i had to win a 2 on 1 match vs triple H and x-pac
i had to play it well over 25 times cause i lost every time! i tried every single way to win,in the ring,out of the ring,grabbed weapons immediately,focused on 1 guy instead of fighting both,ran around the ring and just did like dive bomb hits to 1 guy then ran away before i could get hit.
i cannot remember if i ever beat that match but i wanted the wrestlemania title shot if you lost you were like stuck in a tag team match at the beginning of the card and it was stupid.
i felt sorry for that controller it was blasted to smithereens! AND i had to immediately go buy i new one because i only had 1 controller. i think the ride to the local gaming store was my "fucking calm down!!" moment.
sorry for the length but its my favorite gaming story!
